The gemara is in Bava Basra 57b. It talks about walking by the river banks where the girls used to wash clothing with there arms (i think) uncovered.
I am not sure what the answer is, but if there is a psak for a certain woman that she can have her hair uncovered, isnt that a complete psak which would permit others to see her hair? Just like a single girl doesnt have to cover her hair, same too anyone that has a heter?
I did mention things and every thing was on purpose. the “potential boss” and the “with children”.
From what I know, attractiveness has nothing to do with this. i know of many girls that were not attractive before they got married (hair wise) and then bought these very attractive looking wigs. But when the Halacha says that something is Assur, usually its across the board.
Regarding the potential boss, he can have a dress code for woman (i.e. not wearing mini or over exposed clothing) and usually that wont apply to men, so why is requiring head covering for those woman that are halachically required to wear be different?
